About the department
Our Private Asset Operations team is looking for an individual who is interested in working with assets that are not listed, not liquid, not standardized, and not fully supported by custodian banks or traditional market vendors.
The Private Asset Operations team works closely with Legal, Trading, Portfolio Managers, custodians, transfer agents, and other internal and external partners to support the full operational lifecycle of private investments. When companies such as SpaceX, Anthropic, or OpenAI appear in the news, our team may already have been working behind the scenes. We support transactions from the initial legal documentation review, through trade settlement and cash funding, to restriction removal, corporate action processing, and preparation of the asset for potential public trading.

You will review legal and operational documentation for newly signed private market transactions.
You will coordinate wire transfers and funding for private deals.

You will identify settlement routes for assets that do not have standard settlement routes.
You will process corporate actions affecting private assets.
